I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM MY BROTHER TO KEEP IT IN THE FAMILY. I HAVE SINCE COME DOWN WITH ALS AND CAN NO LONGER DRIVE A STICK SHIFT. I ONLY DROVE IT TO A FEW CAR SHOWS & CRUISES. IT JUST SITS IN THE GARAGE SO IT IS TIME TO LET IT GO. THE CAR IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. AM PRICING IT WAY BELOW MARKET VALUE OF SHELBYS. THIS WILL BE A NO-RESERVE AUCTION. WINNING BIDDER WILL GET IT. CAR IS LOCATED IN HEMET CALIFORNIA. READY TO CRUISE OR PUT RACE MOTOR IN AND HIT THE TRACK. MOST SHELBY PEOPLE IN SO CAL KNOW MY BROTHER AND THE PERFECTION THAT WENT INTO THE CAR. IF YOU KNOW ANYBODY IN THE LA COBRA CLUB (LYNN PARK) OR ORANGE COUNTY COBRA CLUB, JUST ASK THEM ABOUT THE CAR. HAVE ALL PAPERWORK FROM ALL RACES CAR HAS RAN. CAR IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, A FEW ROCK CHIPS BUT THAT IS ABOUT ALL. MUST SEE TO APPRECIATE THE WORKMANSHIP AND CONDITION. YOU CAN CONTACT ME AT a709rainman@yahoo.com or 951-526-4441 with questions. Please do not send questions through ebay, this is my wifes site and I don't always get them.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST, WAYNE
Will also consider a trade plus cash but would have to be a very nice car. Would prefer a Shelby clone plus cash.
